ThL tants had made great preparations to receive the Barely. Flags were flying from many houses, and several of the streets were spanned with evergreens and mottoes. The Local Committee had been diligently occupied for some months in order to afford the society a welcome, and their labours resulted in obtaining a fund of £23s—a larger sum, • we believe, than has ever previously been raised by a local committee in connection with this society. This amount was expended in local prima, for which there were no fewer than 285 entries, in addition to the 364 entries in competi tion for the ordinary prizes offered by the society. Among the local prizes were two offered for the best hunters, and the - contest for them created more public interest than any thing else connected with the show. A capital course had been railed off, and a good stand erected. There were three hurdles, and a fourth alongside an artificial ditch, some 9ft wide. Several thousands Ef persona crowded round and within the enclosure, and watched with great pleasure the leaping of the 22 competitors. The leaping was very credit able, although only one or two cleared all the fences. The number of entries of stock was larger than usual, and the show as a whole was above the average. The stock a peered to be of a good class, superior indeed to anything shown before at this society's exhititione. The number of Entries was as follows :—Horned Cattle, 59—pigs, 42 horses, 47—sheep, 85 —poultry, 60. The local entries were —Cattle, 57—horses, 150—dogs, 68 —fowls, 14. In respect to cheese, the show wee, as mi,,ht be expected, one of the most extraordinary that has ever been aeen,even in Cheshire. The offer of a champion prize of £2O was quite a new feature, and it attracted a large number of competi tors. Mr Thomas Dutton of Brindley, whose dairy h as l ong been regarded as one of the first in the county, deservedly won the much coveted honour. The number of entries in this class was 59, and of butter 14, To the ordinary attractions of an agricultural show was added a good exhibition of flowering and ornamental plants. The bands of the Nantwich (331 Cheshire) Volunteers and of the Crewe Steam-shed were on the ground, and played a selection of music during the day. Considering the unsettled state of the weather, the largeness of the attendance was a matter of surprise. The receipts at the doors were consider ably in excess of last year, when the show was held at Crewe, The only inconvenience was the mode of ingress and:egress—a narrow passage which was crowded by the horses being led from the ground, when visitors were desir ous of leaving the show. With a laudable view of catering for the farmers' wives and daughters, while the farmers themselves were attending the annual dinner, the local committee had arranged a concert to be given at the Town Hall in the evening, to be followed by quadrilles. Besides the prizes mentioned below, money gifts were awarded to labourers who had brought up the largest num ber of children without parochial relief, and to farm ser vants whose length of service had been longest ; and 55 young unmarried woman between the ages of 18 and 25 years, received a sovereign eaoh, with a certificate of merit for length of service. THE DINNER. The dinner was held at the Crown Hotel, where about 150 gentlemen sat down, under the presidency of Mr R. Wilbraham, of Odde Rode, near Congleton. Among the gentlemen present were Lord Crewe. Sir P. de M. Grey Egerton Bart., M.P. ; Messrs. P. S. Humberston, M.P.; R. Barbour, Wilbraham Tollemache, and E. D. Broughton, and the Revs. A. F• Chater, and H. I. Blackburne. After the usual toasts, the Rev. A. F. Chater, vicar of Nantwioh, responded for the bishop and clergy, and Mr Humberston for the army, navy, and ♦olunteers. Mr Dutton, of Stanthorne, proposed the health of the Lord Lieutenant and the magistrates of the county. and said ho hoped that the rumour would prove true that the Lord Lieutenant (the Marquis of Westminster) was about to be raised to a higher position in the peerage. Mr W. Tolle mache responded. Lord Crewe proposed the members for the county. Sir Philip Egerton, in responding, said he entertained the opi nion a few years ago 'that the multiplication of small socie- ties might damage the central society, but he had changed his opinion. That multiplication of kcal societies had had the effect of materially strengthening the county society. They excited an interest in districts where the county society could not penetrate, and induced farmers to come forward and compete in the larger society. Yet he thought the small societies were too formal in their organisation, having patrons, presidents, and so forth. They should rather follow the example of those societies—like those of Over and Tarporley—which held monthly meetings, when discussions were held on farming topics. He wanted the Cheshire farmers to throw away some of their modesty and come forward to communicate infor mation to their brother farmers on agricultural subjects. There had lately been an incursion upon Cheshire, and barons and squires, from another county, encouraged by their success last year, had been having a great gathering of cattle at a Cheshire county town, That had had no effect, however, upon the show of that day. (Hear, hear.) But he hoped that there would be no more raids from Lancashire, and that Cheshire gentlemen would support their own Society. At the Agricultural society's meeting to take place at Great Bedworth, Sir Harry M tiawaring was going to give a dissertation on the six curses of Cheshire. (Laugh ter.) Sir Harry's notions did not tally with his. He thought the greatest curse to a farmer in Cheshire was the pleuro rneumonia; and anything that would alleviate or remove that dreadful disease would be the greatest benefit that could be conferred on the farmers of Cheshire. (Hear, hear.) He considered that the disease resulted more from external than internal influences. The flue'uations between warmth and cold, wet and dryness, had much to do with the disease ; and one of the most important points to be discussed by dairy farmers in Cheshire was the beat mode of wintering stock upon clay farms. Tide was a landlord's as well as a tenant's question. (Hear, hear.) He believed that much depended on the construction of :he buildings. He would like to see the Royal Agricultural Society propose a prize for an essay on the subject of the wintering of stock. (Applause.) Mr HUMBERSTON, in acknowledging the health of Lord Combermere, said he had seen Baron Marochetti's statute of the figure of the venerable and gallant field marshal which is to be placed in front of Chester Castle, and he considered that the Baron had produced a most excellent likeness. He expected that within a year the statue would be erected. Daring the past session Parliament had not been unmindful of the cattle disease. Two bills directed against that disease were introduced and referred to a com mittee, which took some most important and valuable evi dence. The conclusions arrived at were that the disease was now mitigated in form; that for the last year or two it had been on the decrease ; and that the right course to take with fat stock was, to kill an animal as soon as it was attacked (when it would not be injured for foed), and to separate infected animals at once from the healthy por tion of the herd. The latter should be kept in good con dition. Of course the killing of diseased animals would entail a certein loss, but he believed that such a course would generally be the means of saving the whole stock. One of the bills was reported to the house, but the Irish members objected that some of its clauses were too stringent and it was thrown out. Some of its provisions were, how ever, very valuable. Such were, that no man should know ingly take an infected animal into a fair—(hear, hear) — that every care should be taken in driving such animals on the road, and that a penalty should be imposed for placing such cattle in unfenced fields or on commons. He thought there was little doubt that the bill would be in troduced again. Another bid related to the importation of cattle, the idea being that the disease did not exist origi nally among home-bred cattle. The CHAIRMAN gave " Success to the Cheshire Agricul tural Society." He said that, notwithstanding the recent invasion of the northerners, the meeting of that day had been a complete success. The receipts at the gates had been £ 2 4 o —(applause) —against £206 last year, which was an advance from £l6O in the previous year. Not only had the number of visitors been larger than ever, but tho interest taken in the welfare of the society had been greater than ever. This was mainly owing to the reception given to the society by their Nantwich friends. (Hear, hear.) The com petitors would see that a good deal of change had taken place in the form of the premiums. At the annual meeting it was resolved to give a champion prize for cheese, and to increase the prizes for the best cultivated farms and for horses; those were changes in the right direction. But he did not think that the reduction in value and the increase in the number of prizes for stock was likely to attract the winners at the local shows to send to the parent society. The result had confirmed his impression, as the show of cheese had never been equalled, while the cattle entered, though good, were not in an increased number. He con cluded by proposing continued success to the society. (Ap plause.) There were several other toasts, chiefly of a local interest. Mr D. A. H. Lighton, who recently sustained severe injury by a fall on board her Majesty's ship Bri tannia, is doing well. Good hopes are entertained of his recovery. i T s T ed lN a m Th e l:J an ß s NA o r, f rs a e hing inewspaperty which is to be distributed gratis, to contain no advertise ments and yet to give a profit to its proprietor.

There are always features pertaining to the great races of the year which prevent the record of them lapsing into the dull detail of routine events. The Derby and the St. Leger have each their distinctive history, and though there may be a stereotyped similarity in some of the details, yet the chief actors in the scene stand ont with a marked individuality always fresh and new. Last year we were chronicling a story of which Lord Clifden was the hero. To-day it is Blair Athol and Gene ral Peel, whose achievements created an excitement as to the respective merits of the two hnrses scarcely paralleled. It was only on the Town Moor of Doncaster that the ques tion of whether the Derby was a true run race, whether too much was not made of the General in the early part of it, and whether the course here would not suit him better than the Epsom Downs, could be decided. Among the vast crowd that thronged the streets of Don caster from an early hour, but two names, those of the favourites were on every lip :—" Would Sam Scott win the Leger, or would it go to Melton ?" Nobody seemed to think of another destination for the prize, despite the claims of the Miner, for had not the Wizard a second string to his bow in Baragah, whom clever people continued to back despite reports of lameness and breakdowns ? There are few more striking scenes than the approach to the course from the town on the Lager Day. Confined within a more limited space than a similar assemblage at Epsom or Ascot, the order and regularity of the vast throng, all intent on seeing the event, is a sight that often as it has been described has always something of freshness about it. The weather, which had been threatening all the morn ing, gave a taste of its quality half an hour before the race by a downfall of great violence, which robbed the cantering past of much of its interest. The favourites looked magni ficent, General Peel a different horse from what he did at Epsom, and Blair Athol in the perfection of bloom and con dition. The same may be said of Ely, Cambuscan, and Baragah, the three that came more immediately under our notice ; but the increasing rain, which drove in sheets, ren dered seeing anything a dif f iculty. In the midst of such it storm as has not been seen :ince Flying Dutchman's year, the lot were despatched in excellent order, the General, Ely, Blair Athol lying in front, and maintaining this posi• tion until the rain hid them from the sight, The detailed account of the race is given below, and it is sufficient here to say that on coming into the straight the colours of Gene ral Peel, Cambuscan, Ely, and Blair Athol were seen in the van ; that at the distance a shout was raised " Cambus. can wine," while the General, near tho rails, suemid rather in difficulties, and Blair Athol coming out at the Stand proved the correctness of the Derby running, and landed the green and yellow jacket amid as much cheering and excitement as could reasonably be expected under the in fluence of the weather, Sweepstakes of 10 soya each, h ft, with 50 soya added ; for 2-yr-olds 7st, and 3-yr-olds Bst 101 b ; fillies and geldings allowed 31b.

After one failure, in which Ely, Cambuscan, Miner, end Knight of Snowdon broke away, they were despatched from the post in a drenching shower of rain, which speedily de stroyed the difference in the colours of the riders, and rendered it all but impossible to discern the relative posi tions of the horses, but as near as we could make out with the assistance of the principal jockeys, General Peel on the inside got away with a slight lead, having Ely, Blair Athol, Baragah, Knight of Snowdon. and Claremont as his im mediate attendants, the next division being headedby Miner and Black Rock, Brindisi and Cambuscan bringing up the rear. After running in these positions a quarter of a mile General Peel was pulled back, which left Ely in possession of the lead, Miner going on second, Baragah, third, close in whose wake came Claremont, Ely, General Peel, and the favourite; but as they neared the hill Miner assumed the command, followed by Baragah, Claremont, and Ely, but on rounding the bend they were joined by the two favourites and Cambuscan, this lot running in company to the rifle butts, where Baragah was observed in advance, having his stable companion in his rear; the pair, however, were headed at the Red-house by Ely, at whose girths were General Peel, Miner, and Cambuscan, who came on so closely together that it was difficult: to discern which was leading. When fairly in the straight Ely gave way, and was immediately headed by General Peel next the rails, who appeared to look as well as anything, but shortly after he was joined by Cambuscan and Blair Athol, who ran in company to the distance; when Snovidon, in attempting to split the pair, was disappointed, and had to pull round and come up on their right, which lost him some ground, but waiting with exemplary patience to the enclosure, he came up, and in the next few strides had both his horses safe at the Stand, and won, amid the most vociferous cheering, in a canter by a couple of lengths, General Peel obtaining the second money by a head from Cambuscan, who finished four lengths in advance of Miner; Ely was fifth, Baragah sixth, Brindisi seventh, and Knight of Snowdon next. Black Rook and Claremont trotted in the last two. The Stand Plate Handicap of 5 soya each, with 50 added, for 3-yr-olds and upwards, The owner of the second horse to save his stake.

An inquest was held yesterday in the Board-room of the Marylebono Workhouse on the body, by Dr Lankester, Coroner for Central Middlesex, and a jury chosen from among the principal inhabitants of the neighbourhood, and of whom Mr James Brace was foreman. Mr James Burchell, of Broad Sanctuary, Westminster, one of the solicitors to the company, attended to watch the proceedings on their part. The jury proceeded to view the body, which was that of a fair-complexioned woman, about 30 years of age. The hair was light, and was plaited over the templas and at the back of the head. On Saturday seen Ra th il e va body of demand. Edwin Brewed, ticket-clerk a t th e Portland-road station of Railway, was the first witness called. n i g ht last she came to the station about 11 minutes past 12 lie the said ld h e t e r o h p a o d l i t o'clock, accompanied by a man about 45 or 50 yeazs of age, of middle height, wearing a shepherd's plaid coat and a felt hat. lie took two third-class tickets for the Edgeware-road station. Witness told him to be quick,as the train was due and it was the last one that night, lie turned round and said to witness if it had not been so late he should have stood a glass of ale. lie did not seem drunk. Witness told him to make haste or he would lose the train. Re called to deceased to come on. They were the last who took tickets that night, and the numbers of the tickets were 3 ,650 and 3,651. The tickets would not be returned to hi m. Richard Giddens said he was the guard of the last train on Saturday night from Farringdon-street to Portland-road. They arrived there about 14 or 15 minutes past 12, the train being a little late. After the train had started and he had got into his own break van, he saw a woman trying to enter a carriage, with one foot on the s tep of the d oor. A man was behind her, and th e y were close together. Re did see the man enter. l ie j umped 0 van from his not n and tried to prevent them entering the train, bu t c ould not. fallen ßefore he reached them the wom an had b etween the car riage and the platform. In the cite m ent of the moment he did not see what bec ame of t he man. Re could not at tract the attention of the driver, and the tr a i n went on to the next station. lie di d not at first . a see any porter at that side of the station when the tra i narrived there, b u t h e saw one before it left. The re was a ways one porter there, and generally two, but he did not see more than one that night. Wm. Clarke—l am a porter at the Metropolitan Railway and was en duty at the Portland-road station on Saturday night at 12 o'clock. There are usually three porters at that station, one being stationed on either aide, and the other going backward and forward. One was ill on Saturday night, so that there were only two on duty, one on each side. The train was due at 9 minutes past 12. Before it arrived I was going up I me t a man an d woman. ean there w ere any more trains. , ran up stairs to see if th ere were an y more passengers. while That would be about 5 mi nutes past 12, Th e train arrived I said there was one ea ,ll way. I told him th e y mus t b e quick, as the train was due . I went dow n stairs again, but did not see them. I aftorw ards saw a w oman lying on the .wTasheupmsatnaiarssieAdsrl me if line, I could not say she was the woman I met on the stairs. I had left that side of the station to go to the other side. I crossed over after I had been up stairs. I did that as the train was in the station, and before it startcd again. Wm. Rance—l am a porter on the Metropolita n R a il way . I was on duty on Saturday night, and recollect the 12 o'clock train arriving, I was on the other aide of the plat- form attending to the re train. After the up train passed I crossed over to the clt4 •ii platform, just as the train was • leaving the station, having heard the guard call " Stand back." After I had crossed I saw the deceased lying on the line, and I assisted Clarke to raise her up. I heard her groan once or twice after we tookher up. Clarke want for 4 doctor directly, and I waited uutll ho came back. The train by which the accident happened was the last to leave The witness Clarke was recalled, and stated that he locked the entrance door to the station on that side before he crossed over to the other, and that nobody could get on to the platform after he had done so. A Juryman—Why did you go over to the up side ? Witness—l thought I heard the up train, which was due last, and so I went over. The down train was due first, but came in last. The Juryman to Rance—lt appears there was no porter at all on the down side when the accident happened. Witness—l could not say. The Juryman—Dont you think there should be two men there ? The Coroner, interposing, said that was a matter of management which rested with the company, and for which they would be responsible. The Juryman—When the accident happened one porter was upstairs locking the door, and no other porter was on the down platform. Mrs Jane 'Wolff, of 7, Homer. street, Marylebone, said she was at the Portland-road station on Saturday night. She was in the last down train, having taken a ticket from Farringdon to Edgware-road. She road in a third-class carriage. When the train arrived at Portland-road she saw a woman come to the door of the compartment next to that in which she sat and take hold of the handle. The woman beckoned to some one, and said "Como along." Witness could not see who it was. Her attention was called away for a moment, and when she looked again towards the plat form the woman was gone. She did not hear any shriek, but she saw the guard dragging part of a woman's dress— a shawl or a cloak—from among the wheels, in which it was entangled. The Coroner—Was any one with the woman when she was trying the door ? Witness did not see any one. The Coroner—lf there had been any one near enough to push her you would have seen ? Witness—Oh, yes. The train was in motion when the woman had hold of the door. She did not get it open. A Juryman—Did you see any man trying to get into a carriage ? Witness—No. The guard Giddens said he had never hold of the woman's dress. Mrs Wolff said she could not have been mistaken. She swore positively that a shawl, or cloak,' was pulled from among the wheels and laid on the platform. Mr Burchell, the solicitor, eaid he had not hoard of that before, and that no part of a woman's dress was found on the platform. The guard, in reply to the Coroner, said he had his flag in his hand while the train was leaving the station. The Coroner asked Mrs Wolff if she could have mis • taken the flag for what she thought was part of a woman's dress. Mrs Wolff replied that was possible. She added that if there was a man with the woman he must have got into a carriage. Mr Burchell produced a ticket, bearing the number 3,650 and a cancelled mark, which he understood had been given up at the Edgware station; and the ticket clerk at the Portland-road station identified it as one of the two which he had given to the man and woman in question. It ought, he said, to have been given up at the Edgeware station. The Coroner—Then the person who took it must have gone on to the Edgware-road station ? The ticket clerk replied that the ticket could not have available for any station beyond that. Mr Burchell said it must have been delivered up at a station beyond the Portland-road, and the same night too, as that was the last train. In reply to the foreman, the summoning officer said the other ticket had nit been found. The Coroner remarked that it was very odd that other persons besides Mrs Wolff had not oome forward to state what they knew cn this occasion, for many people in the train and at the station roust have seen the occurrence. Mr Thomas Sear, of 105, Hampstead-road, said ho was at the Portland-road station on Saturday night, and •was a passenger in the last down train from Gower-street to Biskop's-road. After the train had started at Portland road he saw a man, dressed in dark clothes, on his hands and knees on the platform, and about five or six yards be hind the train. The man was not a porter, for ho was not in the dress of one. Witness was in the second compart• leant of the last carriage from the engine. lie knew nothing of the accident at that time. Rance was recalled, and, in reply to the coroner, said on crossing over to the down.platfurm he got on to it on his hands and knees. Mr Isaac N. Jakins, a surgeon, deposed that he was called to see the deceased about half-past 12 o'clock on Saturday night, She was then quite dead. He had since examined the body. The lower third of the left leg was nearly divided in two. There was a large wound on the thigh at the same side, and the opposite thigh was nearly separated from the body. All the great vessels were divided on that side, and the wound there would be sufficient to account f.,r instant death. The right fore arm was smashed. She might have died from hemorrhage. The deceased was about 3U years of age, and he thought it right to state that there was a shawl or cloak on the body when he first saw it, so that the wit ness, Mrs Wolff, was; perhaps, mistaken in what she had said respecting the guard. The deceased wore a ring on the wedding finger. - Mr George E. Douglas, the master of the workhouse, said the body of the deceased was brought there about 20 minutes past lon Sunday morning. Along with it was a small reticule, containing a packet of envelopes, some note paper, and 12 lead pencils, with a portmonnaie, in which were Oct in silver and 5d in copper. The witness gave a minute description of her dress, but as that was with the view to the identity of the body, and as it has since been identified, it is not now necessary to state the details. He added that 23 people had been to view the body for the purpose of identification. Thomas Crossley, ticket collector at the Edgware-road station, said the cancelled ticket produced by Mr Burchell appeared to have been delivered up there on the 10th inst., but he could not say at what time of the day or night. Mr Henry Fisher, acting for the general manager of the line in his absence, explained that the ticket in question had been found in a bundle returned from the Edgware station. George French, the ticket collector at the Portland-road station, said he could not have collected that ticket, and no one had passed without a ticket. The Coroner said it was a great point that the man should be found, and he hoped any questions that might occur to the jury might be recorded by the press. Mr Brewer was called, and said he did not think the man to whom he issued the tickets talked like a foreigner or with any peculiar accent. Mr Charles Samuel Swift, of 15A, Cleveland-street, a juryman, said he was a stationer, and on Saturday last some ono bought pencils of him exactly like those now produced; indeed, he believed they were the identical pencils. They were of white wood, and had stains on them like stains of blood, but they were stains of logwood. They were bought by a shabbily-dressed man, who had the appearance of a foreigner. Mr Burchell said the authorities of the Metropolitan Railway were most anxious to give every facility to the inquiry. That was the first person who had been killed on the line, out of an enormous number of people who had tra veiled on it during the twenty months it had been open. The Coroner adjourned the inquest until three o'clock on Monday, the 3d of October, remarking, as he did so, that it was much to be desired that persons who had seen the occurrence at the Portland-road station would come forward and state what they knew about it. ADDITIONAL PAR TICULA.RS. The coroner and jury had not left the inquest room more than five or ten minutes when, amid great ex citement, a respectable-looking elderly man made his ap pearance, and said he had been to the dead-house and iden tified :the body as that of his daughter. He stated his name to be Mr C. Priohard, upholsterer and undertaker, of No. 3, Crescent-street, Euston• square, and Adam and Eve yard,Euston-road, and said the matter had been brought to his knowledge within the last hour, under the following circumstances :—While at dinner that day he sent for a paper to read an account of the Foresters' fete at Lord's Cricket Ground on Monday, and his eye lighted on the paragraph headed " Mysterious Death on the Metropolitan Railway," containing a description of the deceased woman, He at once recognised it as that of his daughter. He has tened to Marylebone Workhouse, where he found his sur mises to be too true, and that the body of the deceased was really that of his child, Mr Prichard then made to those present the following statement ;—lie said her name is Emma Jane Gollep, aged 33, the wife of Henry Gollop, a cabinetmaker to trade, re siding at 15, Harrow-street, Lisson-grove. They have three children, one 11, another six, and one three years of age. Her husband was an invalid and in very bad circumstances. She had unfortunately formed a connexion with a married man named Henry Powell, an organpipemaker, working, he believed, at Messrs Gray and Davidson's, or some other organbuilders, in or near the Euston-road. On Saturday night, between 11 and 12, his son and daughter were having something to drink with him, Mr Prichard, at the Adam and Eve publichouse, near the Hampstead-road, and she went cff in a bit of a huff, and threatened to go to her aunt, from whom she had some expectations. Her husband left to go by the train, and on Monday morning his son in law came to him and said he believed his wife had gone off to her aunt's, as she had not come home ; but he added that while ho was in the train and just as he was moving off towards Baker-street he saw her and that fellow Powell together on the platform, and had he seen her before the train started he would have got out of the carriage and made her get in. They had heard nothing of the occurrence till he had read it that day in the papers. Subsequently SQVCIQ other relatives arrived, and with them POLICE INTELLIGENCE—Sept. 14, MANSION HOUSE. CHARGE or PERJURY.— Gustave Stoven appeared before Mr Alderman Waterlow, on remand, clamed upon a summons with having com mitted wilful and corrupt perjury. Mr Besley appeared to prosecute, and Mr Wontner was for the prisoner. The circumstances under which the charge was brought against the prisoner were given fully upon the last examina tion, and it will be remembered that the charge of perjury was contained in an affiJa.vit which was made and sworn to by the defendant, stating that he knew a Mr Franken heim, and had had a conversation with him, and he had expressed his intention of leaving the country for Paris, and that ho believed Mr Frankenheim was about to leave England. Upon this affidavit a capias was issued against Mr Frankenheim, at the suit of Mr Bailey, a stock broker. The prisoner, from his own statement, acknow edged having signed the document, but said he did not know its nature. It will be remembered that the names of Mr Bradlaugh, managing clerk to Mr. Leveson, a solicitor in Bishopsgato, and Bailey, were mentioned in connection with the charge, Yesterday Mr. Besley said ho thought that under the Vexatious Indictment Act the magistrate was empowered to bind the defendant over to appear to answer any charge that might be made against him, and not bind over any one to prosecute, bat leave the Government to prosecute if it thought fit. This, however, was overruled by Mr Oaky. Mr Bealey said he wished to call the defendant as a witness in another case, and if there were no case made out against the prisoner in this case, the charge could not be supported in the case which was about to come before the court. Mr Alderman Waterlow said, taking into consideration th 9 defence set up by Mr Wontner, he was willing to deal leniently with the prisoner, and should discharge him. Charles Edward Bailey, stockbroker, Royal Exchange buildings, and C has, Bradlaugh, articled clerk to MrLeveson, soolicitor, at 66, Bishopsgate, then appeared in answer to a summons charging them with having unlawfully, wickedly, and maliciously conspired and combined together to suborns and induce one Gustave Stoven to swear to a certain false affidavit, and to deceive one of her Majesty's judges of the Court of Queen's Bench. Mr Besley prosecuted ; Mr Lever appeared for Mr Bailey ; and Mr Bradlaugh defended himself. The principal evidence that was taken was that of Gus tave Stoven, which corresponded precisely with the state ment already made by him, and was to the effect that a man named Duffman told him he could raise £lO, and on his asking him how, replied, "By making an affidavit." Duffman took him on the 23th August to Hercules-court, and pointed out Mr Frankenheim, and told him that he had become bankrupt, and had sent large sums of money away, and himself was going to leave the country. Ho (Stoven) said he could not help his going away, and Duff man said he could earn £lO, and then ho could not go. He saw Duffman and a man named Cruchkey the next morning, and they told him the money would have to be divided. He did not understand what he was to do, and hesitated, and Cruchkey said there was some one else who would do it. They told him he would only have to sign his name, and asked him to go with them to Bishops gate-street and he should receive £3. He went with them to Mr Leveson's cffice at about half-past eleven o'clock. He said Mr Bradlaugh asked him if he knew Mr Frankenheim, and he told him he saw him on the previous day, when Mr Duffman pointed him out to him. Mr Bradlaugh asked him if he knew Frankenheim was about to leave the country. He hesitated, and Duffman nudged him and said, " It's all right." He (witness) said, "No." Mr Bradlaugh told him he need not be frightened as there was no harm to be done, and it was only a matter of form. He told him to go again in half-an-hour. He went again shortly afterwards by himself, but the papers were not ready for him. lie saw Duffman and Cruchkey at the door, and afterwards went into the dike with them. They had to wait a little while. Tw ) papers were afterwards brought to him to sign, and ho di I so. Mr Hew h, the commissioner, entered directly he did so, and asked him if that was his signature, and said some words similar to the oath he had taken as witness; but he did not ask him if he knew the contents. Cruchkey then went into Mr Bradlaugh's office, and came out with some money in his hand. Ile gave Duffman £2, him (witness) £3, and had .L. 5 for himself. The witness said the hill lavit was not read over to him, and he did not know the contents_ When asked by Mr Bradlaugh if ho knew where Fraukenheirn was going to, Dairinansaia to Paris, and he (witness) repeated, " To Paris." Mr Bradlaugh cross-examined this witness at very con siderable length, apparently with a view to establish in his defence that the charge against him was a conspirac3 ; but nothing material was elicited to favour such a result, and The, case was adjourned, after having lasted nearly five hours. Extraordinary Case at Guildford, Yesterday, at the Magistrates' Clerk's office, Guildford, before the Mayor, I'. W. Jacob, Esq., and J, Neale, Esq., borough magistrates, Robt, llannam M.D.. Ph.D., F.C.S., &c., was charged with threatening to shoot Mr Marmaduke Wilkie. The defendant is well known in the scientific world as the successful inventor of a process for converting the fibre of straw into a pulp capable of being manufactured hate all kinds of paper, and at the Interna tional Exhibition of 1863 received the only prize medal and special mention for superiority of process in the treat ment of raw vegetable substances. The complainant is a papermaker, residing at Stoke-next - Guildford. The case excited great interest. The complainant deposed—l live at Laurel Villa, Stoke road. Yesterday I was at Mr Elkins's office, in Great St. Helen's, London. The defendant came in to see Mr Elkins on business. I was in an outer office at the time, and pre sently was called in to disprove something which the de fendant had said. He threatened to print and publish a libel on my mother. I told him that if he did so I should consider it my duty to give him a good horsewhipping. Upon this the defendant jumped up in a violent passion and called me a great many names. I rushed up to him and we closed. He put a finger to one of my eyes and tried to gouge it out. lie also tried to bite my nese. I struck him, and defended myself as well as I could. We were eventually separated by a person whom Mr Elkins called in. The de fendant then said, " I will go and buy a six-shooter this afternoon and have your life, and the lives of all the -- Wilkins." This was about half past 12. I left the office and went out for a walk. I came down to Guildford by the 5 o'clock train from London. The defendant was in the same train, but not in the same carriage, and when we got out in the station yard ho called out to me, " I am ready for you this evening ; I have got it ? I supposed he meant the revolver. He followed me through the town to the corner of the Commercial-road, all the way making use of threat ening and abusive language and the most dreadful oaths. He lett me in the Commercial-road, and I went home. The defendant briefly cross-examined the complainant, but the facts of the case as deposed to remained unaltered. The complainant handed in a letter, which he alleged the defendant had sent to his house, and would explain the origin of the quarrel ; but the magistrates considered it foreign to the investigation. The defendant, in answer to the charge, said ho had no recollection of making use of the words imputed to him concerning the pistol, Ile denied that he had any intention in any way to injure the complainant, to whom, however, he considered himself quite equal without the aid of a pistol; but when the complainant spoke of " chastising" and "horsewhipping" him, as a man of honour he felt himself bound to resent the affront, and if the magistrates thought that ho ought quietly to submit to such an indig nity, then he was guilty ; but he reiterated that ho had not the most remote intention of doing the complainant any bodily injury. The magistrate decided that the charge was proved, and ordered the defendant to find one surety of £5O, and to be bound over himself in the same amount, to keep the peace towards the complainant for six months. The defendant entered into the required security, and th 3 parties then left the court. Foreign Mail Packet List. MAILS DUE. Australia and Mauritius, via Southampton .. Sept 18. v;a Marseilles ... ..
